I have to disagree. Sure, it's easy to objectively measure frame rate, resolution, draw distance, etc. But gameplay? That's very much in the eye of the beholder. Reviewers aren't hired to count pixels. They're hired to analyze a game in an informative and entertaining way. To do that they need to bring to bear their subjective interpretation of what makes a game worth playing.

Actually... gameplay is also technical -  controls, rules and mechanics.

Things like art style or story can be pesonal, subjective, but not gameplay. For example, I personally don´t like the plot of  GTA series, but I do admit that the gameplay is great and I can see why people enjoy those games.

Well, gameplay is the result of the interaction between the player and a set of rules and mechanics. There's a lot of room for subjectivity in that interaction.
